Attended F1- H1 Visa Interview on 5th Nov. I am currently working on EVVC model.
VO asked some basic questions regarding my University, My work Location and my Yearly salary and said i am done with my interview., your case needs Administrative processing. We dont have any definite timeline but we make sure to complete it as soon as possible.
She returned my Passport and took my End Client letter and LCA.
Checking the status since then, No update and no emails from Consulate for Additional Documentation till now.
i was curious to know what process they will go through for my type of cases and how long it takes.
Does anyone encountered similar issue?

After Dropbox submission,
US embassy asked me to appear for an interview ( Jul 17th 2018) . The interview lasted for about 45 mins and VO officer said everything is looking good but I need documents in electronic format and gave me a white slip and checked Letter from End client, Internal project details include the project's technical description, budget, timeline, current status, number of employees assigned and worksite location, Your resume with prior work experience.
Aug 6th 2018 - My attorney submitted the docs
Oct 4 2018 - no update on site or on email
OCT-15-2018 - I got a reply from the embassy that they have not received any documents-so I submitted again
Dec-2018- I got an email from US embassy to submit my passport.
JAN End-2019 - I travelled back to US
Never give up!! carefully submit the docs what they ask and in the right format ( like.word,.pdf etc) and have patience! Start some business or look for another job in your home country to keep you busy!
ALL THE BEST!
